BARRY, Chief Secretary to Gl)verntnent. .Putt Louis, Mauritius, July 24, 1818. pforning Chronicle From various circumstances we are inclined to believe th it diet e is a design, on the part of Go vernment, to propose to Parliatnent, as 3 prepa ratory step to the resumption of Cash Payments, the repeal of the Statute of 1773, and of the sub segnent Acts, by which silver coin was declared to be a legal tender only to a limited amount. The repeal of those Statutes would restore to the silver currency its ancient character, and make it, as it is every. where else, the standard legal currency of the United Kingdom. It now hears. R. seigniorage, and consequent ly would not he likely to be exported as int article of commerce, which our gold coin DOW is, on account of the profit which it yields as a com modity, exclusive of exchange. The Sovereign and Half-Sovereign would then become mere tokens, and might be reduced to the value severally of IS and 9 shillings. We are induced to believe that this plan is it► contemplation, because we learn that a coinage of three millions of silver is order ed ; and it ►s certain that immense quantities of silver have recently been imported, and, in fact, are daily importing, evidently by extensive pur chases for the Batik. ft is possible that by thi► means the One Pound Notes would, in the" first place, be paid in cash, as an experiMent pre viously to the general resumptiun.
